Rosser
Roundup '99 K Trail
Mud mud mud. At one
point, we came to a huge mud-bog. Though the first rig that attempted
it had 39" tires, several smaller rigs had to also try it. Most
of the gang took the nice, safe, bypass.
This
CJ-7 made it less than 10 feet before stopping dead in it's
tracks.

Get
ready to take a dive for that tow hook!
|
Stringbean
is in the photo in his Bronco...I swear.
|
Gee,
Dad, sorry. I really thought we could make it.
|
Jason
Haller gives it all he's got in his 2.5L YJ. He ended up flooding
his clutch and getting towed all the way back to camp.
|
We
really thought this 39" Bogger-wearing Chevy would walk right
through the bog...
|
...however,
the truck blew 3 tires of their beads at the same time!
|
Thanks
to Todd Rosser for pullling Lil Bear out of the bog so we could
work on it.
|
We
spent close to two hours trying to extract the truck and get it
rolling again.
|
Using
a winch cable and an air compressor we managed to remount two
tires. A Toyota had a matching wheel to loan to get us back on the
trail.
